Lupe took care of us, she fully explained the menu and made recommendations. I was looking the red carne con chile (pork beans and rice) and she said "if you like it spicy, we can only make the red one spicy" I said "yes spicy please). It was perfect spicy and hot. My beautiful wife had the crispy tacos plate which with three tacos. So she ordered two shredded beef and one chicken. It also came with rice and beans. The food is authentic Mexican food. The place is small but nice and clean. I will for sure stop again when passing through Banning. read more

Tried their menudo for the first time and it was such a disappointment. It was watered down and no flavor whatsoever. Chilaquiles are way too over priced for the amount they sell in one plate. read more

Super average. Not good, not bad. I had a carnitas burrito and it didn't have that much flavor, I had to heavily rely on the salsa. Only about 8 tables in the whole restaurant, seems more like a to-go place. Staff was friendly, but our waitress didn't know the difference between a lime and a lemon. She gave me a lemon with my corona... read more

My in-laws just recently moved out to Banning about a year ago. There is not much to do out here nor a large variety of food. We found this place driving by and thought to try it out. There are not much seating so we did have to wait a while until there was a clean table available. I ordered the costillitas con nopales and it was so good. Upon ordering it, the server told me that it was really spicy and I may not be able to handle it. I am sure there may be some people out there that can't take their spice, but I LOVE my spicy food! So to me, this wasn't as spicy as she said it was going to be. The dish was very good, although I've never had it before I would definitely order it again. Each table gets their very own salsa and chips, which I really like that as well! read more

Stopped by here on a drive back from camping. We wanted real Mexican food. This place hit the spot. The jamaica was not overly sweet like some places tend to go overboard. We got the Carnitas plate and the Chile Colorado plate. Very good flavor on the chile colorado. Nice savory flavor. Services was attentive. She checked in often. Definitely can understand why a group of 12 were dining when we got there. read more

Found this place on yelp. Was looking for some Mexican food and decided to try it out. Got seated and immediately got some fresh chips and salsa. Chips on point. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito, wet with green sauce. I didn't expect it to be this amazing, this was legit the best bean and cheese burrito I've ever had ( I don't really like meat in my burritos) this was beyond my expectations. The guacamole and sour cream was the cherry on top, and service was excellent! Will definitely come back! read more

Cocina La Doce - Bean & Cheese Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Banning, California

We were coming off a big hike and were very hungry and had actually Yelp'd to another close by location, but it was more fast-foody than we were hoping for, so we quickly Yelp'd again and found this spot not even 1/4 mile away. Very pleasant staff from the our entry and thru the entire visit. In most Mexican spots, you'll get the chips and salsa asap and this is pretty telling of the food it's preceding, but not so much here. The chips and salsa were basic at best; nothing memorable and we didn't even finish them, which for me is odd because I can plow 2-3 baskets. However, the entrees we ordered were very tasty. They do takeout and dine-in and when I got my burrito it was wrapped in foil like it was to go, so the presentation for dine-in was very lackluster, but at least the flavor delivered. My friends plate had a much better visual presentation. Restrooms are outside and while the parking lot is big, the parking spaces are angled, which would make you think you went out the other side, but there is no other side, and you go out the same way you entered. read more

This place was one of our favorite but since they have that new waiters not for over a year we stopped coming here. Today we decided to give them another try because to be honest the food is really. I called in an order and the waitress was super rude still we placed the order. So she said 10 minutes ok, we go pick it up and she tells me that the restaurant is closed didn't say sorry nothing. Why wouldn't she say that over the phone?! My kids stayed hungry. I can't believe the owner allows her to act this way and treat her paying patrons this way! I'll take my money elsewhere! read more

The interior is not much to look at but their handmade tortillas are legit. We ordered pozole and enchiladas and were happy with the quality and flavors of both. Parking is easy with an attached lot. read more

First, I really wanted to give this restaurant more stars, but I must be honest in my review. I ordered the Caldo de Rez because of prior reviews and the photos. It looked to be very tasty for lunch on a cold, blustery day. Unfortunately, I think the kitchen did not taste the broth before it was served. It was about three times as salty as it should have been. A rookie mistake on the part of the kitchen. I had to squeeze three lime quarters into the broth and add a ton of my water to make it palatable. Although the three chunks of beef looked like a good presentation, the meat was a little stringy, and I should have asked for a knife and fork to cut them up to eat them appropriately. In other words, the beef was not fall apart, tender. The small portion of corn on the cob looked great, but do you really want to fish it out with your fingers and eat it off the cob? The restaurant appeared clean, and the service was acceptable. read more

Cocina La Doce - Carnitas Burrito Mojado - Mexican Near Me - Banning, California

Whenever I crave Mexican soups, I order from here. I can definitely vouch for their pozole, caldo de res, and albondigas. They are consistently fantastic! I've tried branching out to their plates before and I can't say I'm super impressed. I remember trying their Birria plate and was pretty disappointed. Their nachos and salsa that come complimentary when eating in is fine but their soups are what keep me coming back. Service and ambiance are fine. Haven't had a bad experience in those categories. read more

Great food and service. Had the fajitas and were cooked really well! On the small side indoors but still, nice little place for Mexican food. read more

Food was favorful and spot on for my cravings tonight. Got the pozole and tostada de camaron. Great service!

Boiled beef is not carne asada, fries were soggy, the menu didn't mention that the nachos had avocado so my husband was surprised to find it all covered in guacamole. The red tamales were new but the masa tasted off, and the sauce was just pato canned sauce, no real flavor was added nor salt. Tried to call them but the phone just rings. read more

I randomly stopped here on a road trip because I was craving a burrito. It's tiny inside, which is why they have a makeshift outdoor seating area with plastic chairs and a canopy tent. I think they can't fit more than 20 people inside max. But I was just here for the burrito to take back on the road. The staff was very friendly and my burrito came out less than 5 minutes. It was massive and not that expensive considering a burrito like that in Los Angeles would be $22. Here, it was $14. The tortilla was the best part of the burrito. It smelled, felt, and tasted fresh and possibly made from scratch. The rest of the ingredients were average. The only part that I didn't enjoy were the huge pieces of raw onions that unfortunately overpowered the burrito every time I bit into one. Smaller and fewer onion pieces would have been way better. read more

We've been stopping here for years on our way to and from Arizona. It would be easy to drive by because it's pretty non descript. The food is amazing!

drove home from Arizona to . Decided to stop in to eat as we were very tired from the drive and did not cook at home. I had a taco beans and rice and when I bit into the it tasted like fish. I looked at the meat and it appeared to look like canned chicken. I did not like the taste. The beans didn't taste very good either and my rice was cold. Was not happy. My husband ordered two tamales and his tamales tasted like bread and not cornmeal. Both of us very unhappy we rather go to to eat our dinner next time. read more

Wayyyy too expensive Go in for burrito and side of rice and beans total comes to $26.45 how in the world is that even possible. Didn't even get a drink. I know everything is more expensive now days and things are hard for everybody. But this place needs less overhead or something. How can u expect someone pay 25 dollars for burrito rice and beans. Felt like Disneyland in there and no one was happy. Workers outside setting down on the patio. I won't be back! read more

Sometimes, yelp reviews are way off base. Other times, a restaurant has a bad evening. Unfortunately, our experience was not clear on which was the case here. When we entered, there was one table in place. A Spanish speaking family. The server asked if there were two of us and we replied that we wanted to order to go. She handed us two menus and we sat at a booth to peruse it. Once we were ready to order, the server asked us to the register to place our order. Afterwards, we went back to the booth and sat down again. In a service industry business that only has one table seated, it would be been good customer service to take our order where we sat. I guess punching it directly into the computer was easier than writing it down and then entering it. While we were waiting, the Spanish speaking family received their food. The apparent matriarch of the table told the server in Spanish that what she received was not what she asked for. The server relayed this to the kitchen. Someone in the kitchen must have responded inappropriately in Spanish to the server and the matriarch heard it and voiced her displeasure at whatever was said. We ordered a Al Pastor Wet Burrito with a Chile Rellano on the side as well as a combination plate of Chicken Enchilada with Chile Relleno. When we got back to our hotel and began eating, it turns out that our Chicken Enchilada had magically changed into a Beef Enchilada. Our food had been served to us in Styrofoam Clam Shells. I noticed that the Clam Shells were somewhat deformed as if they had been put into a microwave or was the sauce that hot? And no Chips or Salsa offered or given? Sorry, no repeat here. read more

We have enjoyed Senorial for years. Always good food. Clean. Mostly get togo. Never had any problems.

The customer service wasn't horrible but it was bad. At first she got my mother's order wrong. The establishment itself seemed authentic and played music. The chips and salsa wasn't hot or remember full. I ordered the shrimp soup and the shrimp and broth was very plain. My mom ordered the chicken albondigas they were under cooked so made them seem slimy. The prices were high for the quality. read more

I still wanna try other dishes will come back and I do recommend for now. read more

Stopped in for lunch between Palm Springs and LA. It's an unassuming cozy restaurant with several booths. Food was quite good, with a wide variety of Mexican staples, with home cooked flavors. Unfortunately, they did not have margaritas, except "wine margaritas". Bathroom was outside but decently clean. Staff was friendly. Took one star off for getting various orders wrong in the same meal. read more

This place is it! There is no where else you will be able to go or find in: Beaumont, Redlands, cherry valley, ) Yucaipa, that has good quality authentic Mexican food. This place is as if you traveled to Mexico and are being served Mexican food that has that Mexican taste of quality good food. IDK where they are getting their ingredients, but the taste is just like Mexico's Mexican food. Every time I've gone the quality continues to stay the same. The seating is small but it is worth the wait or takeout. This is not like a fast food Mexican drive thru, not an Alberto's or Rosie's quality this is top tier... they nail their spices and cuisine. This place needs to be everywhere! I've you've moved out here from Orange County, San Diego, and LA ... this is the spot ...! There isn't anything else that can come close .. read more
